Thanks! Your insights and descriptions work great for me and my level of understanding. Great videos, keep up the timely content.

love how down to earth, realistic and transparent this channel is ! keep up with the good work Travis !

Awesome summary of what needs to be done... no beating around the bush... no self advertising... just clear road path... thanks a ton Travis...appreciate your efforts.

I don’t like to comment on videos , but as a developer I have never seen this kind of clean and understandable explanation. Thanks for your efforts. A lot of things have just clicked after this video)) subscribing

Absolutely invaluable! Thank you so much travis! You are a godsend!😊

Thank you so much for this break down. I took notes thorough your video, and as I was going, I realized that I'm almost a DevOps engineer now at my current company and had no idea. I just need some certs and more time on some certain things and I could make this work. Your video really simplified what seemed like a mountain of things to overcome and figure out. Im going to go out and buy a whiteboard now lol.

You forgot one very important aspect. Communication with lots of different people. As DevOps guy, you need to be able to communicate with almost every part of the organization. Especially if you are working in a larger project with lots of teams and people.

Great video! Tbh it seems being a developer/cloud engineer seems a lot more simple than becoming a full on DevOps engineer.

Just came across this video and man you're knowledgeabl, wise, and present everything in such a humble manner. Love that! Subbed.

I am learning AWS currently...And within next 4-5 months i will be a DevOps 100%...i will keep updating here what i will be learning for DevOps

Hi Travis, I have been following your content and guides for a few months now. Your Terraform tutorial was my first steps into IaC. It inspired me to follow through on a few projects on terraform. Today I got a phone call from a very good company offering me a place on their DevOps programme. I have no developer background and have worked in IT support for 18 months after starting my IT career in my 30s. Your content is inspirational and relevant. Thank you so much.

Hey Travis, thumbs up for the video, a lot of great information and you are a great presenter too. I got say it’s crazy that 170+ thousand have watched but only 5,3 thousand have given a thumbs up for the video. This is the second of your content I have watched and your stuff is good. All the best 🎉

10 Important Skills Should Have as a DevOps Engineer * Git * Linux * Python * AWS * Docker & KUbernetes * Terraform and Also CLoudFormation * Ansible * Jenkins * Monitoring Tool * Operations And Agile Development

Wow this is one of the best explanations I’ve heard..very well articulated! 👍🏻

Bout time someone explained this concept for basic understanding ❤

There's so much to learn in this field it's unreal

That´s exactly what I was looking for to start this new path! Amazing content.

Travis thank you for the video it demystifies the approach to DevOps and provides the master of the right tool.

This is what I was looking for the last few days. A full package of DevOps guide. Thanks for sharing this great info.

I learn and have a lot of fun with Travis, thank you for sharing.

Very well explained! Thank you for decluttering all this knowledge

Outstanding... I'm a noob to the industry but after this video I'm confident in my level up... Gracias Senior!!!

That was smooth. Just what I was looking for

It's impressive to present things concisely, in a so comprehensive manner, that after watching that video I was already able to put puzzles together and imagine how those tools are chained with each other. Even though some of the terms I encountered for the first time. I started a course on devops one month ago, my prior experience is that I had been working with python over the past couple of months, but quickly realised one programming language is no longer enough. Then I started doing some research what fields of IT interest me the most, I directed my attention towards data analysis/devops, traditional way of starting as a junior developer, creating websites feels just boring to me, I did some projects in my free time to get an idea of how it works together, but didn't feel fulfilled at the end at all. I'd rather see websites as a mean to an end, not the goal of my work itself. Plus, I think supply exceeds demand and wages for junior developers don't differ much from the one I got in my current job (automotive industry). There's indeed quite a lot to assimilate, feels overwhelming at times, but a prospect of having a job allowing me to make a decent living, doing stuff I consider fun on a daily basis, and having, to some extent, my future secured drives me.

I usually never say this but you are litterally one of the few, incredibly skilled and talented youtuber with actual industry experience. I've been an application developer for nearly 5 years now, and I get the feeling that everything is shifting away from traditional application development into devops engineering, and I had no idea what it was. I can see in several job posts that the role has changed in 2023 compared to in 2018. Thank you again man. Appreciate it. Watched from Denmark :)

Notes for skill part: 1.Version control 2.Linux 3.Coding 4.agile development 5.operations 6.docker/kubernetes 7.Infrastructure as code 8.ansible 9.jenkins 10.Monitoring

Thanks for the insight. I do most of these things for my own projects until you got to Kubernetes. It is good to know what skills I need to work on. I also appreciated the overview of working within a team. I imagine working with a group of people toward the same goal would really elevate the learning process.

Trying to learn DevOps via Tech world with Nana's bootcamp, coming from OPS side, this video is awesome. As I learn, devops usually automate their selves out of a job to do the next thing, because theres always gonna be a next thing. Coding for DevOps are more of a infrastructure side of things rather than application logic. this vide is awesome i hope more similar will be released in the future.

I just started learning Cloud and found you, unrelated, your voice is SMOOOOTH. I was surprised when I started the video.

Pure knowledge, no bullshit. I like this guy.

It used to be the app could break or the server could break. But now, thanks to dev ops, the pipeline and automation can also break.

I love this channel. The man is so honest. He doesn’t try to jerk off his audience with feel good nonsense, e.g. “…become an info security expert and make six figures in a month.”

Amazing explanation! thumbs up and subbed!!

It cleared all my confusion and gave me a clear path from where to start. Thank you so much.

two minutes in and your explanations are far superior than most. thank you

Good stuff here! Thanks! What about Sec? Some of the scaling agile frameworks (SAFe) throw in the DevSecOps role onto the team. More of a responsibility then a tool? What are your thoughts though,.. is part of the learning path Security as well? That's a big, lotta knowledge (DevSecOps) to cram into my tiny head? :)

The pause after "there is also a scrum master..." Had me rolling. 😂 The scrum master truly is one of the people of all time. 😅 I've been working as a DevOps engineer for a little over 2 years and the things mentioned in this video relate very closely to my experience thus far. Great video. :)

dear travis, this is very handy.and informative video. Additionally, you scrpted it very well and enough descriptive.

This was excellent big trav! Thank you..subbing

Helped me find what I would like to do after years of doing application developement without much satisfaction!! thanks much

This is great thank you so much, I am a php/drupal dev and I want to switch to DevOps as soon as possible. Already know Git, linux and coding.

great video! I know networking, Ansible, network automation with python and Linux, based on your information and clear explanation I think I should go for the rest of the skills and try to become a devops engineer.

You are the best dude !!! thanks for your content

I have been both the dev side and ops side so this career path just makes sense for me. Thanks for explaining the path and the tools.

Thanks for this awesome video. Great breakdown!

As an Ops guy spent more time adopting Linux and work as an independent contractor. I've looked at some of the negative comments here... unfounded as they are it shows just how ignorant of the road map / tech skills stack that is required! Yes difficult to get into the space. But for me your post is 100% accurate. With 23 years of experience I've worked with Win and Open Source lately which mirrors your comment re cloud. Linux is the net and given this matches what you need to add to repertoire . Brilliant video sure to subscribe to someone who speaks my language 👍🏽

Hello Travis, I want to express my sincere gratitude for creating this video. It has truly inspired me to continue my learning journey and maintain consistency in my efforts. Your explanation of various tools, even though I may not be proficient in them yet, has provided me with valuable knowledge on how to manage them effectively. Your teaching style is simple and concise, making it accessible to anyone, regardless of their level of experience. Thanks to your video, I feel excited to embark on this journey and learn more. I've subscribed for more of your content, and I eagerly anticipate what else you have in store. Thank you once again for your invaluable contribution.

Great video, thank you Travis.

unrelated topic.... you have a great speaking voice. It makes receiving information so much easier.

Awesome as usual!!! 👊

Can you explain the impact of AI adoption on software development/ engineering? Coding?

Thank you Travis, really is helpfull video and simpliest way of explanation about DevOps which really hard to understand as a concept

Thank you, I shall start looking up for resources.

Developer with an interest in devops here. Have to say... Tech tubers are making technical education far more accessible than conventional education ever would. Thanks to all of you.

I'm trying the zero to DevOps route since I could get a role at a company interested in developing their own DevOps. I'm three months into it now and I can't say whether it's been wise or not lol atm, I am taking a toll from ALWAYS having to learn something new. But then again, such is the industry on a whole. The worst part was having to switch tools midway because of costs and having to deal with the fact that I have to relearn some stuff and kind of unutilise some of what I had learned. I have fun and most of all a lot of help from the Devs, which allows me to focus more on the ops side of things. I wish I had a better senior presence, though

Thank you Travis.. Great content!

Travis, i just started learning DevOps, after watching many of ur videos. I started Linux from UDEMY Imran Afzel for both Linux Admin & Bash

GREAT video Travis! ❤👊🏻🤘🏻

Best way to learn and to advance is through practice. I don't think there are shortcuts in transitioning to DevOps and you still need a decent computing background if you want to start from scratch with both Dev and Ops practices.

Good stuff here! your videos help me understand DevOps very clearly, they are very usefull! thanks! I want watch more!

Then you also have the infrastructure and systems engineers who have been working cloud infrastructure deployment and hybrid migrations from on-premises and private datacenters and now want to learn to automate a great deal of it. This is great content!

As always, the best content out there for such advice. Start the video with a meme or whatever, doesn't matter lol

Hey Travis , I really like your video content it's really helpful. I wanted to request you make video or look into the toughness of current job market (2023) for entry level developers and give some advice. The entry level job almost does not exist !! All of them wants experienced developer. How to get into industry for newcomers? I would look forward to your opinions. Thank you for awesome videos!!

Thanks Travis, excellent video.

Very intriguing video. Travis you deserve a hug 🤗

I see DevOps is kinda easier then being a Developer, but at the same time there so much to this field, very exciting. Thanks for the video!

Good video, worth a watch for everyone confused and looking to test their ambition

By training I’m a full-stack oriented developer but have learned so much about CI/CD and love the process of making that connection! Even at the very base level version control through Git should be a must… surprisingly I’ve ran into developers that have been in their jobs for 5-8 years and don’t know how to use Git surprisingly

Thanks, Travis. Great video.

Very good overview. I was hired as a Platform Engineer (same thing except I write the apps that run on the infra too) three years ago. I had to learn every technology you mentioned on the job (besides Ansible).

Subscribing you because of that AWS Python Blueprint, Thanks :)

The ELK part made me giggle 🤭 great videos :D I am QA automation engineer looking the level up my skills and I find this insightful. Thanks for sharing

well explained. great job

Thank you I really appreciate this

What i would also add: - some sort of service mesh: istio, linkerd, consul - some sort of messaging queues: kafka, rabbitmq

That ELK Story Got me 😂, Awesome video !

I started my journey 3 months ago and edureka have made me understand alot I'm confused about even though I'm still confused but I ma still following my road map and I wish to get a mentor

Great video, I'm a university student and am starting my year in industry as a site reliability engineer intern, this video gives me a good base of what I need to learn, thanks!

Ok, besides your excellent insite, you have abviously been to several cookouts on the other side of town!🤜🤛You got swag myman! LOL

Thank you for the great video Please, can you make video about SRE and platform engineer. What are the differences between them

First time here in your channel and I really liked your content. Need to watch the previous videos to check the intros that you talked about it 😂

Thanks a lot for this amazing content! I'm currently 41 and decided to become a DevOps. I've worked for 5 years as an IT support specialist and I already have good basics in programming. How long will it take me to be a qualified DevOps?

I love the content, tanks so much!

You earned a new sub. 👍🏼

One of the best and concise video on Devops, bigups ❤

I would say to really dig deep on Python, Linux, and Networking concepts (assuming you are a newcomer).

Thanks a lot Travis

i love you bro. great video . thank you so much

I find this so darn interesting I can barely contain myself...

Amazing video. Please accept a small correction, ELK and Splunk are logging tools and not monitoring Monitoring has tools like Prometheus, thanos, zabbix and more

hi, you shortly talked about this in the last part But If you had to Start from beginning with no front end/full stack dev experience ; Would you go into Devops with the 10 steps below or start with Front/fullstack dev? Also, how long would this take if you went full time with the 10 steps & to apply for jobs with no Experience? 2 or 3 months?

Is the path to becoming an SRE the same as devops? Can you do a video on SRE and possibly moving from SRE to developer?

Hi Travis, Thank for the video. Quick questions - Can I choose just cloud related path only or without cloud to shrink the volume? Is it fit with job industry? And you talk about web developer point of view, what's your take on test automation engineer?

HI Travis, do i need to learn all about python or are there specific topics I need to focus on. thanks

Yes it was really helpful Thank you soo much

was awesome it's time to commence

The only DevOps explanation that has made sense.

Great video on so many levels.

Nicely explained!
